As I'm sure many of you know, HMD Global became the exclusive licensee of Nokia in 2016, and released the Nokia 6 in China earlier this year. At Mobile World Congress, two more models were announced - the Nokia 5 and 3. Starting today, Nokia/HMD has launched all three phones in India.

I recommend reading the WMC announcement post for details about all three phones, but I'll briefly go over them again. The Nokia 6 is the company's flagship, with a 5.5" IPS display, a Snapdragon 430, 32GB of expandable storage, and 3GB of RAM (also available in 64GB storage/4GB RAM).

The Nokia 5 has mostly the same specs, but with a 5.2" screen, 16GB of expandable storage, and 2GB of RAM. Finally, the Nokia 3 is powered by a MediaTek 6737 CPU, with 16GB of expandable storage and 2GB of RAM.

The Economic Times reports that the Nokia 5 and 3 will be available both online and in retail stores, while the Nokia 6 will only be available from Amazon India. The Nokia 6 will cost Rs 14,999 (~$233), the 5 will be Rs 12,899 (~$200), and the 3 will be Rs 9,499 (~$147). All three phones are expected to go on sale in July.

Actually, there are redmi devices available which have either SD625 or SD435 and cost lower than the lowest model of nokia. Also, moto g5 is cheaper than nokia 5. Of course nokia might be better in other things (hopefully camera, longer updates), but, as for price, they are not a catch at all.

They're releasing something with the 835 later this year. The 6 isn't really their flagship, it's just the best specced they've released so far.

This will be interesting to see who dominates the mid range market segment cos as of now it's dominated by the likes of Xiaomi, oppo, vivo etc. Nokia's upper hand would definitely be the build quality & robust after sales support.

Unless the camera is exceptional and/or update cycle is significantly long, these phones, based on their specs are overpriced.
